Marcus Rashford will be bidding to return to the starting XI for Manchester United's Premier League clash with Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday night.
The England international has been in strong form for the 20-time English champions this season, scoring five goals and registering three assists in 11 appearances in all competitions.
However, he was not deemed fit enough to start Sunday's clash with Newcastle United due to illness.
The 24-year-old played the final 19 minutes of what proved to be a goalless draw at Old Trafford, and he missed an excellent chance to win it for the Red Devils in the final exchanges.
Rashford will hope to have fully recovered from the illness by the time that Antonio Conte's side make the trip to Old Trafford on Wednesday night.

Rashford has faced Tottenham on 12 occasions during his professional career and boasts a record of eight wins, one draw and three defeats against them, while he has scored four times.
The majority of the Englishman's outings against Spurs have come in the Premier League, and he has won seven, drawn one and lost three of his 11 top-flight fixtures with the capital outfit, netting four times in the process.
Rashford also faced Tottenham in the semi-finals of the 2017-18 FA Cup, playing the final seven minutes of what proved to be a 2-1 victory for the Red Devils at Wembley, with Alexis Sanchez and Ander Herrera scoring the goals after Dele Alli had made the breakthrough.
The forward's first-ever match against Spurs came in the latter stages of the 2015-16 Premier League campaign, and he was substituted at the interval of what proved to be a 3-0 defeat for Man United.

Rashford helped the Red Devils beat Spurs 1-0 at Old Trafford the next season, while his first goal against them came in 2019, finding the back of the net in a 1-0 away victory.
Arguably, his best-ever performance against Tottenham came at Old Trafford in December 2019, when he netted a brace in a 2-1 win for the 20-time English champions.
Rashford was part of the Man United side that lost 6-1 at home to Spurs in the early stages of the 2020-21 campaign, but he has won his last three league games against the London club.
The Man United academy product was on the scoresheet at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium last October, with the visitors running out 3-0 winners, while he played 68 minutes of his team's 3-2 victory at Old Trafford in the reverse fixture, where Cristiano Ronaldo scored a hat trick.
